My Project

I am coming into my first year teaching as I graduated college in December of 2024! I am so excited to start my journey in 2nd grade. I am trying to build a classroom that will not only feel welcoming, but also run effectively and promote successful learning.

Each item will help assist in a smooth and routine based day, making our goals and expectations through the day easier to promote a successful learning environment.

Some items will allow me to have what I need as a teacher to be able to effectively teach my students in an engaging way.

Thank you for taking the time to read and support teachers!! Your donations would not go unnoticed or without great appreciation!
